Well, it depends on where the moral authority comes from... and whether you agree with it or not. You might call it different things, depending on those or other factors. Could be a Theocracy if the moral authority was religious... a Dictatorship if it was one person making the moral calls. Democracy if the moral calls are made by everyone voting... etc. I don't think there is a separate word that means exactly that.
